The Beer Drinker's Marathon has finally become one of the premier sporting events in the world. The chicks in bikinis with signs are probably next. What makes it such a spectacle, you may ask? There's finally a betting line.

Bettors beware: a confidential source tells us that Eric Warner has been putting a little bit of pine tar on his running shoes before practicing lately. Better grip allows for better traction, especially for those in their 40s. Not to worry, though; We've hired the same officials from Game 2 of the World Series to officiate the Beer Drinker's Marathon.

Rippe supporters will be cheering him on by having a Carbone's #2 at the finish line. Sadly, their cheers will be muted somewhat by the Cappicola.
